Word History
Rummage came into English in the late 15th century, from the Old French word arrumage, which was based on arrumer 'stow in a hold'. In early use it meant 'arrange items in the hold of a ship', which gave rise to the sense 'make a search of a vessel' (which is still used in the context of customs officers going about their duties) and then to the main modern meaning. Rummage is connected to room, through the shared Middle Dutch root ruim 'room'.
rummage      
v. (D; intr.) to rummage through (to rummage through old clothes)

Wikipedia

Jumble sale

A jumble sale (UK), bring and buy sale (Australia) or rummage sale (U.S and Canada) is an event at which second hand goods are sold, usually by an institution such as a local Boys' Brigade Company, Scout group, Girlguiding group or church, as a fundraising or charitable effort. A rummage sale by a church is called a church sale or white elephant sale, frequently as part of a church bazaar.

Garage sales usually differ from rummage sales in that they are not event-related and are often organised individually (rather than collectively).
